Glimps DT - Mixed Media Ariel


Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing my Glimps DT make, a summery creation with an adorable mermaid - Ariel. I decided to do a bit of Mixed Media and picked a Grey Board on which I created my background.


I created the background by sponging Acrylic Fresco Paint on my board then added a bit of Liquitex acrylic inks on the edges. 


I then added a rock, seaweed and details using acrylic paint markers and Sakura and Pentel Gel Pens.


You can (maybe!) see the details a bit better on this picture :)


I coloured Ariel in Copics on Make it Colour Blending Card then did some fussy cutting.  

Skin: BV20, E000, 00, 11, RV02, W3
Hair: E49, RV55, 66, 99
Purple: V09, 12, 15, 17
Blue: B00, 04, 06, 18, 37
Flower: RV04, 55, 66, Y26


And I stuck my mermaid on my board and added a few bubbles and also covered Ariel's body in Wink of Stella. 

Thank you very much for your visit, have a great day! Hugs,

In the woods...


Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing a 99% Copic scene! Because I really would like to see spring coming, I made a spring forest scene built around a Little Red Riding Hood character by Paperbabe Stamps, Mayleedee Little Red Hood.


I coloured the sky first, using B000 and B00, adding a cloud in BV20, C0, 1. I knew I wanted to add trees, but since the sky is very clear, I chose to colour it first because the colours wouldn't show.


I added trees on the left with E31, 35, 49, 59, 79 and B39, G28, YG 01, 03, 17 for the foliage. Between the trunks I put E71 and 74 to fill the space. I then added a tree on the right using the same colours for the trunk but G40, 99, YG03, 45, 63, 95 for the foliage. I then added bushes in G28, YG01, 03, 17 and distant shapes in G40, 43 and BV000, 00.


Next I coloured the grass from bottom to top in YG01, 03, 06, 17, 67.


I then coloured my character - doing the skin first, then the clothes and keeping the red and black for the end to avoid dragging dark colours with my light markers (See full list of markers used below). For a bit of depth, I added blades of grass in T7, G28, BG78 and YG17.


I could have stopped at the previous step, but thought I would add tiny details - hence the 1% non Copic! - in Gelly Roll and Pentel gel pens. 

Sky: B000, 00, BV20, C0, 1
Trees on the left: E31, 35, 49, 59, 79, B39, G28, YG 01, 03, 17
Tree on the right: E31, 35, 49, 59, 79, G40, 99, YG03, 45, 63, 95
Bushes: G28, YG01, 03, 17
Distant shapes: BV000, 00, G40, 43 
Grass: YG01, 03, 06, 17, 67
Blades of grass: BG78, G28, T7, YG17

Skin: E000, 00, 11, RV02
Hair: 100, BV04, C7, 9
Red: R35, 37, 39, T5
Purple Dress: BV00, 01, 02, 04
White Apron: T1, 3
Basket: E31, 35, 37


Thank you very much for your visit, have a great day! Hugs,

A Doodled Tiddly Inks


Hello everyone! I'm sharing a sweet Tiddly Inks make today - a bit special to me since it involves A LOT of doodling! The image called Wryn Waits inspired me to create a special background for her:


Image: Tiddly Inks Wryn Waits
Colouring: Mixed Media on Canson Montval

The whole background and image were watercoloured using Zig Clean Color Real Brush and Ecoline Brush Markers. I then used my Polychromos to do the hair. I doodled using Pigma Microns in different sizes and coloured and added details in Sakura gel pens, Stabilo and Staedler pens. 

Thank you very much for your visit, have a great day! Hugs,

Colouring Spring Skies Challenge at Make it Crafty


Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing my inspiration card for our current challenge at Make it Crafty - SPRING SKIES :) You can see all the details and my teamies' amazing inspiration cards HERE!

For my card, I used a digi image I love - the sweet Isabella digi - which seemed perfect for a spring card. Here is what I did with her:


I resized and cropped Isabella in MS Word to match the die I wanted to use then printed her on Make it Colour Blending Card. I die cut my image with a Lawn Fawn Die then coloured my image in Copics. I created spring hills and a spring sky in Copics too, following one of Zoe's fantastic step-by-step projects from her Fun Techniques For Colouring Skies Ebook. I added a touch of Distress Ink on the edges of my card and then added a few dots using gel pens and I wrote a sentiment in Copic multiliner.


Skin: E000, 00, 11, RV02
Hair: E25, 59, YR23
Purple: V09, 12, 15, 17
White: C0, 1, BV000, V000
Sky: B00, 02, 04, 05
Hills: YG01, 03, 06, 17, 67


Thank you very much for your visit, hope you will give spring skies a try too! Hugs,
Delphine xx
